It seems very humane.
That's only because little Takumi's identity is special, and the talent he displayed is worth these people doing so.
Of course, Chiyo and his parents are genuinely worried.
But the Third Kazekage and the group of Sunagakure's higher-ups behind him are definitely thinking about getting familiar with little Takumi.
These shrewd people are very clear that someone like little Takumi will definitely receive the highest level of protection.
Because his talent lies not only in his own strength, but also in pioneering the development of puppetry.
From this seemingly warm scene, Takumi can very clearly see the intricate schemes of those higher-ups.
But Sunagakure should still consider itself fortunate.
If Sunagakure had someone like Danzo, who, under the banner of acting for Sunagakure's good, used various means to network talented people under his control, it would definitely accelerate Sunagakure's destruction.
After all,
Sunagakure does not have Konoha's foundation.
Perhaps this is also the reason why Sunagakure did not produce someone like Danzo.
It can be considered Sunagakure's good fortune.
[You naturally receive a scolding from your parents, but you don't care.]
[Because compared to your gains, this scolding is irrelevant.]
[And you know that they scold you because they care about you. After careful consideration, you also realize your actions were too rash.]
[If it weren't for this fluke of relying on Chiyo's latest poison to interfere with Sakumo's movements, eventually leading to his death from poisoning, you might have had a hard time escaping.]
[You make up your mind not to rashly leave the village again until you have sufficient strength to protect yourself.]
[At the very least, you will only act after ensuring your own safety.]
[And when you show your achievements, you naturally receive everyone's amazement.]
[Sakumo constantly created various chaos on the battlefield's rear lines, causing great losses to Konoha's enemies.]
[He thus earned the title Konoha's White Fang and has always been a headache-inducing primary target for other villages.]
[And for someone like this to be defeated by you, everyone is even more amazed by your strength and also even more approve of your puppetry skills.]
'No matter what, he's a man called Konoha's White Fang.'
Takumi sighs with some emotion. He really didn't expect a man like this to die like this.
But compared to dying later due to conspiracies and schemes, dying on the battlefield might spare his name from being stained.
He just wondered if Kakashi was born by this time.
It would be funny if he wasn't.
[The Third Kazekage can't wait to announce this fact, but you stop him.]
["Don't reveal his death. Instead, spread some false news, saying that Konoha's White Fang, Hatake Sakumo, has defected." You make this suggestion, and it is quickly approved by Sunagakure's think tank.]
[Chiyo, as one of the think tank members, is very surprised that a five-year-old like you could have such wisdom.]
[You killed Sakumo and also made many puppets to protect your parents' safety. This means you no longer need to worry about them suddenly dying on the battlefield.]
[Although anything can happen on the battlefield, your parents are not weaklings either. And with your enhancements, the Puppet Brigade's combat power is rapidly increasing.]
[They have virtually become a hard to solve problem on the battlefield.]
[No longer needing to worry about your parents' safety, you can focus on researching puppetry at home.]
[More and more puppets with various functions are developed.]
[And you are no longer satisfied with the power of senbon and kunai.]
[You start trying to make gunpowder and develop artillery shells.]
'More and more like a Gundam.'
Takumi says this, but his face is full of regret. 'But a beam saber can never be made.'
After all, the technological gap is too wide.
And for ease of control, puppet materials can only be sturdy wood. If stronger metal were used, even puppets over three meters might be uncontrollable.
After all, what drives these puppets are the puppeteer's Chakra Threads.
So, the lighter the puppet, the better.
[With your continuous production and transportation of puppets, the Puppet Brigade on the front lines keeps advancing, constantly receiving news of victory.]
[Although Chiyo's poisons are quickly neutralized by Konoha's Tsunade, the power of the Puppet Brigade still makes it hard for Konoha to resist.]
[After heavy losses, Konoha has no choice but to seek assistance from other allies.]
[And the ones they choose happen to be Iwagakure.]
[The war affecting the entire Shinobi World finally begins.]
[After being inactive for a long time, you find it hard to suppress the urge to go to battle.]
[This time, you spend a lot of time modifying the super-large puppet from before, no longer adhering to a humanoid form, but focusing more on functionality.]
[Thus, a puppet vehicle loaded with various weapons is born.]
[During this time, you not only mass-produced various types of puppets, but also greatly increased the number of puppets you can control.]
[Now, you can precisely control one hundred puppets.]
[Perhaps in quality, they may not match Sasori's later Performance of a Hundred Puppets,]
[But in quantity, you have caught up.]
[Now, all you need is to go to the battlefield, capture enough powerful Jonin, and turn them into your Jonin Puppet Corps. Then you will have combat power surpassing Sasori at his peak.]
[And you are only six years old now; Sasori is just beginning to come into contact with puppetry.]
'Having a good family, and receiving full support to practice puppetry.'
'Also being able to realize those wild ideas in your mind through puppets.'
'Being able to influence the situation of the shinobi battlefield at such a young age.'
'One can only say, Incredible Luck is truly amazing!'
Takumi marvels, feeling anticipation inside.
Being able to control one hundred puppets at only six years old, how many will he be able to control when he grows up?
Five hundred? One thousand? Two thousand? Or even... ten thousand?
He doesn't dare think about ten thousand. After all, to control that many puppets, besides using Sasori's method, one would have to infuse Spiritual Energy into the Chakra Threads.
If too much is divided, even with little Takumi's Puppet Master talent, he might go crazy.
That would far exceed the limit an ordinary person can endure.
[This time, you don't rashly leave. Instead, after demonstrating your puppet vehicle, you tell Chiyo about your desire to go to the battlefield.]
["Why must you go to the battlefield?" Chiyo is very shocked by your puppet vehicle, but also puzzled.]
[You don't answer directly; instead, you show her a puppet.]
["This is?!" Chiyo is immediately shocked, because you show her Sakumo, who has been made into a puppet.]
[Chiyo is not shocked that you turned a living person into a puppet. This technique is considered a forbidden art among puppeteers, and previous generations had already developed it.]
[Using living people to make puppets can maximally preserve the deceased's strength in life, which undoubtedly greatly enhances the puppeteer's power.]
[Because it is too inhumane, the production method is called a forbidden art, prohibiting puppeteers from using it.]
[Chiyo is surprised that you can one hundred percent preserve Sakumo's strength.]
[Even the most top-level puppeteer cannot preserve all of a deceased person's strength.]
[And you, a mere six-year-old, have actually achieved this.]
["No! You cannot leave the village! It's too dangerous!" Chiyo refuses even more decisively, never changing her mind no matter how you plead.]
[You didn't expect things to backfire, but you also know Chiyo is worried about your safety, and the importance you represent is also too great.]
[Helpless, you can only turn to your parents. You give the Sakumo puppet to them to increase their strength, and ask them to bring back the bodies of the Jonin they kill for you.]
[Your parents agree, and like Chiyo, repeatedly instruct you not to casually leave Sunagakure.]
[Although you didn't fulfill your desire to go to the battlefield, your main objective is met.]
'Starting to build an elite puppet army now?'
Takumi feels some anticipation. If it's Jonin like Sakumo, it might be okay, but if they are Shinobi with Kekkei Genkai, controlling them might be very troublesome.
Especially those Shinobi with different Kekkei Genkai; some might even conflict.
Like Ice Release and Lava Release.
One is low temperature, one is high temperature.
Quite countering each other.
